Many things can clog a sewer line and often water is the best resource to clean the line. Tree roots, minerals, dirt, grease, and sludge get clogged and must be removed in order to maintain proper sewer operation. General Pump offers pumps with low pressure for smaller lines and higher pressures of 4,000 PSI for industrial applications.

Hydro-Excavation is a non-mechanical and non-destructive process which combines pressurized water and a high flow of moving air to simultaneously excavate and evacuate native soils at a controlled rate. The soil and water slurry are conveyed via a tube to a truck-mounted debris tank. This process allows for quick, clean and precise evacuations which require less backfill, less labor force, less restoration, and less environmental impact than conventional digging methods. General Pump has many pumps large and small to fit this truck mounted application.

Mining is the extraction of valuable minerals or other geological materials from the earth. Mining in a wider sense can also include extraction of petroleum, natural gas, and even water. High pressure water is sometimes used to blast and clear dirt to retrieve these valuable resources.

Pumps are often used in the CO2 industry for the transfer of liquid CO2 in the making of dry ice. They are also used in the beverage industry. Due to the nature of this liquid a pump must be able to withstand very cold liquids and hold up in a harsh environment. Pumps from General Pump are designed to work effortlessly in this industry.

Misting systems work by forcing water via a high pressure pump and tubing through a brass and stainless steel mist nozzle that has a small orifice, thereby producing a micro-fine mist. The water droplets that create the mist are so small that they instantly flash evaporate. Misting systems are used in tropical and warm weather environments to cool public spaces, sporting events and other applications.

The steel industry is vital to today's economy. Steel is the backbone of bridges, skyscrapers, automobiles and things we use everyday. Pumps are used in the steel industry to cool large facilities and other areas throughout the manufacturing process. They are also used in the descaling of steel pieces. General Pump's line of industrial pumps fit the needs of this industry.
